1) Maple - Fell. This tree's main stem failed several years ago. This has left an unattractive hole in the canopy which has still not filled in (photo 1). Of more concern is the rip wound that was left at the top of main trunk. It has some advanced decay (see photos 3-5) - this is the wood supporting the branch over the neighbours. The rip wound in photo 5 has not occluded and is on the tension side of the trunk. There is a cavity in this rip wound. The cavity appears to be within Mattecks t/r>0.3 failure criteria at the moment (from probing with screwdriver). That said, It is very likely that the branch will fail in the future. Reducing this branch significantly will leave the tree looking even more mutilated than it does at the moment.
